The boys were all sitting in front of five different cameras, a fake backdrop and a lady with way too much make up on sitting near them. They were ready to do the interview, the third one of the day. The rest were easy but this one was harder since Niall was sitting next to Harry. This was a practise run through, the cameras weren't recording anything yet and the interviewer was just going through some questions.
"So, Niall, are you single?" The interviewer asked, raising an eyebrow at him. Niall nodded, his hand tapping on his thigh. The boy was bored, and hated doing interviews all day. They always got the same questions and always gave the same answers.
"Well we could sort that out. I have a daughter that'd suit you fine!" That's a bit unprofessional, Niall thought. He cringed and went red. Louis laughed, while Liam and Harry shook their heads and sharing an uncomfortable smile.
"We don't date, uh girls- I don't, eh..." Niall stuttered, his face growing redder. He wished so badly for this practise to be finished so they could take a break.
"So you're gay?" The woman was nosy, and it was making Niall's hands sweaty and head spin. He didn't mean to word it like that, and now this woman has him pushed in a corner.
"I didn't say that..." Niall forcefully smiled, done with the interview and day. He just wanted to sleep, the boys itching to answer for him but they aren't allowed to intervene with questions about sexuality, even if wasn't recorded because it could look shady according to their PR management.
"It sounded like you did." Harry was twitching, his foot tapping and his brow furrowed. He hated his band mates being subjected to questions like that.
"It wouldn't matter if he was gay." Harry said politely. He ignored the stern look from one of their managers. Liam and Louis were already chatting secretly about other stuff. Zayn wasn't there yet, running late as usual so Niall only had Harry 100% standing up for him right now. "We still love him, I do especially. Sexuality is such a small thing, why are you so invasive in his personal life?" It was clearly Harry's turn to ask the questions. "Are you homophobic? Are you going to be rude now? If you are then we're leaving." Harry was already out of his seat. Niall was bright red, his heart beating. Louis and Liam were speechless and the man who was supervising the boys looked angry, talking into a phone.
"Yeah, that's true. We don't care if he's gay." Louis said simply, putting his arm around Niall. The boys got up, all apart from Niall who was still in shock from how the interview turned out.
"Get up, Niall, we're going." Harry held his hand out for the older boy to take.
"Uh. Yeah." Niall grabbed Harry's hand to help him but let go and walked off. He didn't want to cry, but he did and it was so annoying. Why does he have to cry at everything? He isn't a child any more, it was frustrating for him.
He walked into the bathroom in one of the hallways and locked himself in the door. This day was too much, he wanted to see his mum and listen to her tell him it'd be fine and nothing was his fault but she wasn't with him and it made Niall cry harder.
Faint talking and footsteps could be heard, and Niall sniffed and wiped away at his tears. It'd be obvious that he'd been crying but he'd have no choice not to come out from the toilet eventually.
The bathroom door creaked open, but only one pair of footsteps could be heard. The voices were fading away and so were the other footsteps.
"Niall?" It was Harry. As if this day couldn't get any worse, Niall hated everything right now.
"Go away please. I don't wanna talk."
"Can you come out and see me, I want to see you. There isn't any point hiding in this toilet, I can just climb over..." Niall let a small smile spread across his face. He loved how Harry would always try and make him feel better.
Niall stood up, coughed and wiped down his trousers. He took a deep breath and unlocked the door, facing Harry but looking away.
"That's better." Harry stood closer and wrapped his arms around Niall, hugging him. "Want to tell me why you walked off and locked yourself away?"
"I messed up."
"How?" Harry hugged tighter, Niall hiding his face in Harry's neck.
"I just admitted to her I date guys, she could tell..." Harry tutted, pulling away from Niall.
"You think anyone would believe her? Niall, no one would care anyway! Imagine all the guys that'd be lining up for you!" Harry smiled, his hands on Niall's shoulders. "Of course if they're jerks then we'll have to get Liam and Louis to beat them up."
"Louis? But he's so tiny..." Niall laughed with Harry, his smile returning to his face.
"You'll be fine, Niall. We all love you, I love you and so does the boys. You'll be fine." Harry hugged Niall one more time before leading him out the bathroom and taking him to the rest of the boys, including Zayn. They took turns hugging Niall and telling him that they love him. That's always how Niall knows things will be fine, when his boys tell him it will be.
